Very nice bike, is it now your preferred ride? Going to sell the DL650?

Yes it seems that you're not the only one to think the F & Z make a pretty good R.

Haven't ridden the DL since I got it. Need to tidy up a couple of minor issues before I sell. Should take it out for a ride to keep the battery charged up.

Sorry that you couldn't join us. Especially as we had a good group and a nice ride.

Yeah, I'm being a real slacker at the moment eh. There always something that keeps interfering.

For example; I can't make it tonight cause I'm pretty sick in the ol' guttal area. Fark it.

still we had a good ride thanks Fun Runner

Yeah, didn't make it to the ride, but thought I'd meet everyone down at Manukau for a bit of practice. No-one showed

, so did a few slaloms and a bit of emergency braking practice. Laid down a nice long black stripe off my front tyre

. Contrary to my doubts about really needing to load up the front tyre first - it seems that it does make quite a difference to the amount of anchorage one can throw out!

Maybe next week...

Sorry Andrew, took the opportunity to go a bit further afield

with Horace. We went up the gorge and out to Kaiaua. Down to Miranda and then looped back the way we came, except we jumped onto SH2 at Mangatawhiri and back up the motorway.

Not as long as what we did though

Sorry that we missed SASS last week but we were heading to Wellington, via Whangarei. Meandered all over the place and stopped for long lunches cos we were very busy chatting with other bikers.

Anyway I will be at SASS this Wednesday

Catch up with you all then.
